Tithing lays up treasures in Heaven!

Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal: But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal: For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.
Matthew 6:19-21 King James Version

THOUGHTS ABOUT TODAY’S VERSE…
Where do you hide your heart? What we most value is where we will find our heart. So it is an important question. You see, we can treasure money & riches, control, security, relationships, cars, toys, tools, just about anything. When we do that, they begin to control us. When we do that we become just like the world and we become carnal or natural, worldly Christians at best. God wants us to be Spiritual Christians and seek those things that are from Him for our lives. We are reminded here that it is only by turning loose of the things of this world that most of us keep as our treasures, that we will find what is truly treasure. We must sow into the Kingdom of God to store up treasure for the future. God’s wants us to tithe (Tithe: to give a tenth of your first fruits. Take your income amount and move the decimal point 1 space to the left. The result is your tithe!) to Him. That’s because you treasure your earthly money more than you treasure God. There are some of you out there that are NOT tithing and know that you should be! When you know what is right and don’t do it that’s SIN. You know who you are and so does God! Don’t test God! That is NOT a good thing to do.
God wants your heart that’s why He says to lay up treasures in heaven, where He is. God wants you to hide your heart in His Secret Place.

MY PRAYER…
Holy Father, I pray that out of the riches of Your grace, You help me find my treasure in You instead of the things of this world. Today, I want to offer You all that I am and have, for Your glory. Father, supernaturally by Your Spirit enable me to be all that You have said I am. Father, show me the way into your Secret Place that I may hide my heart in You.
Through Jesus my example, Lord, and Savior I pray.
Amen
